my house is a bombsite....
#18
hi guys!!we are home now!!!! and now my spanish house is a bombsite!!!

we left on tuesday morning, and the removal truck (cheap and so reliable!) turned up on weds morning. It couldnt get up our hill so we had to unload onto a van and go up and down about a trillion times, on 35 degree heat!! so much fun!

Both me and mr FB are really pleased, but hey it still feels like a holiday so its bound to be!! Mr FB is picking up words really quickly which is great
I am a tad shocked at how much food has gone up tho
but its so nice to be surrounded by jamon iberico!!
and patatas bravas, and tortilla etc etc!!Something strange going on, my antena 3 is talking in english
which mr FB is rather enjoying - maybe its cause i am using my englihs freeview boxes?
Also forgot to bring enough englihs adaptors so everytime i dry my hair i need to unplug the tv and so on..... luckily the future inlaws are coming over next week so they are bringing some- they are coming to our wedding which is a week today- we really dont do things by halves do we!

anyway thought i'd give you a little update and thank you all for your lovely wishes....!!!!!
kisses from mr&mrs featherbum!!!!!

Well to your new home featherbum and mr featherbum. Will be thinking of you next week how exciting for you both, do as as Rosemary says and change your plugs, we did and everything work fine. XX

hello ladies!!!
we have changed a few plugs but the lady in the shop said to not change delicate things such as tv's, computers etc as a power surge could explode it??
would you know about this?
thanksssss!!!
off to sunbathe now... bliss!!!

I think that a power surge thingy is a must for your computer system because otherwise you could have alsorts of problems.

Welcome home featherbum!! 
Glad you arrived safely; although sorry to hear about the problem with the removal company!
I've moved house in those temperatures, and I know it's not fun!
Anyway, at least you can hopefully relax a little bit before your wedding, and just enjoy the start of your new life together
Wishing you and Mr featherbum every happiness, and looking forward to hearing all about the wedding.
Maybe you might even post a wedding photo on here????
Enhorabuena!

Hi FB....good news that you are ´home´hope you are getting sorted. If it´s any consolation our house is like a bombsite also as we have the electricians in doing a complete re-wire....as they turn up as and when they like we can´t get straight and still have boxes to unpack after 4 weeks!! We had the plumber in before them and that in itself was a very messy and dusty time.
Anyway...CONGRATULATIONS AND GOOD LUCK WITH EVERYTHING
